I had a busy July. It was hot lots of days so I played with water a lot, sometimes with Daddy and other times by myself.

My parents took me places. We went to the Salem Willows where I got to go for a ride on a fire truck! I love fire trucks! I also watched people fishing and got a close look at a crab caught by a boy on the pier.

We also went up to Maine for a long Fourth of July weekend. I had a really good time at Kelly's Cove in Northport with Mommy, Daddy, and Aunt Sharon. I like to throw rocks into the water. Daddy likes to throw me into the water! Then we sat in the sun and dried off afterwards. Northport is just south of Belfast, where there are many decorated bears for me to pose with.
We took a day trip up to Acadia National Park. At Seal Cove, we saw Stanley Brook flow into the ocean and I put my boat in the water and watched it float away. My parents biked around the carriage roads for a couple of hours while I tried to sleep, then we went back our car at the Jordan Pond Teahouse. There's a big lawn behind it and I had a chance to run around a bit. I also got to run on the beach (well, not really a beach) at Stevens' Pond in Liberty, Maine (home also to Liberty Graphics where Daddy gets all of his shirts).
Later in the month, we went to the first New England Cambodian Cultural Jamboree (photos to come). It was fun seeing lots of kids that looked like me. I also got to play in Lake Winnepesaukee with my friend Chloe.
